DESCRIPTION:50 Years of the Hyde Amendment\n\nOctober 21, 2026 at 9 AM PT (noon ET) 
 \n\nRSVP: 
 https://www.thenation.com/events/hyde-50-abortion-access-event/\n\nJoin The 
 Nation and the Rosie’s Law Coalition for a virtual conversation 
 reflecting on the legacy of the Hyde Amendment and Rosie Jimenez, moderated 
 by Nation deputy editor Regina Mahone and featuring Nation abortion access 
 correspondent Amy Littlefield, Rosie’s Law legislative campaign 
 coordinator Ana Rodriguez, and reproductive justice activist Nancy 
 Cárdenas Peña.\n\nThis fall marks 50 years since the passage of the Hyde 
 Amendment. The ban on federal funding of abortion is the most significant 
 yet under-acknowledged anti-abortion policy in U.S. history, restricting 
 access to a fundamental right through a budget rider. \n\nAccording to one 
 estimate, it’s forced more than a million people on Medicaid to give 
 birth who would otherwise have gotten an abortion. \n\nOctober 3, 2026 also 
 marks the 49th anniversary of the death of Rosie Jimenez, a 27-year-old 
 mother who was denied care from a clinic because she could not afford it 
 and instead got an unsafe abortion that took her life. Rosie is considered 
 the first documented victim of Hyde.\n\nThis virtual discussion will leave 
 ample time for audience Q&A.\n\nThe event is free but registration is 
 required. Attendees will receive a Zoom link in the email confirmation 
 after registration. \n
